Abstract

Information splitting is used in many tasks of the intelligent sharing of secrets and key data in business organisations. The significance of information splitting depends on its nature, while the significance of information sharing may depend on its importance and the meaning it has for the organisation or institution concerned. This study presents and characterises models for multi-level information splitting and information management with the use of the linguistic approach and formal grammars. The appropriate methods for secret sharing to be chosen for the specific type of an organisational structure will be identified depending on this structure.
